I doubt we’re the only victims, I’m sure there will be more.” His work was listed on their site until we asked them about his criminal past. His profile has since been removed.

She said: “The sentence he has been handed is not nearly enough after what he has done. I met him through Studio 24 when he was in his mid -twenties and I was 14. “It was when I came across his website I knew I had to come forward. It was full of photographs of young girls in compromising positions and very little clothing.

The BBC website stated: “Simon continues to write and direct for film and TV, and enjoys photography on the side.”
